This 1957-vintage Whirlwind saw action with several different Naval Air Squadrons (845, 820, 701, 848, 847 & 705) and when reading the service history of such old generation helicopters it is notable just how many incidents and mishaps they were involved in. To RNAY Wroughton in December 1974 and Duxford by road in October 1975. Now one of only two aircraft that remain suspended from the AirSpace roof

Built in 1963, this aircraft served with 801, 736 and 803 NAS before transferring to the RAE and then RRE. In 1976, it was moved to Brough for ground instruction, later displayed at Castle Donnington, and finally relocated to Newark in 1988. Restored to its original 736 NAS markings, it notably took part in bombing the SS Torrey Canyon in 1967 to help limit an environmental disaster

Built in 1962 and operating only with 849 NAS, this Gannet was retired from active service in 1979 and put on display at HMS Dryad, Southwick, with the allocated Admiralty maintenance serial A2667. Sold off from Lee-on-Solent in 1982, it arrived at Newark in November that year and was displayed in the later 849 NAS black/yellow tail livery until a recent repaint into these earlier markings of the squadron aboard HMS Eagle around 1970
